Let
a) Show thatStakes its maximum value over all orderings of the two sequences when both sequences are sorted (so that the elements in each sequence are in non-decreasing order).
b) Show that S takes its minimum value over all orderings of the two sequences when one sequence is sorted into non-decreasing order and the other is sorted into non-increasing order.
